Pride

Pride can get the best of us all. It is the sneakiest temptation we face because it can take over our thoughts without us realizing it is happening. This study digs in to how to recognize that temptation, how to control our thought process, and how to remind ourselves that God is the author and perfecter. In this study, we choose to say, "Jesus, Step into my story."

Step Into My Story

Inspired by the life and faith of the Old Testament prophet, Habakkuk, Thann Bennett's study poses the question - what would happen if we lived for God's fame instead of our own? What if there is a radically different—and far better—approach to achieving success in life? You will walk away encouraged and equipped to live for the purpose of His fame.

My Fame His Fame

It’s not uncommon to hear a sportsperson say that in order to be successful they have to be selfish. 

But is there a different way to operate in our sports? A different motivation?

Confidence In Christ

Many of us are acting out in rebellion and don't know it. Whether it's walking in unforgiveness with a spouse, staying in an unfruitful situation, or entering a wrong relationship, there are areas of our lives in which God wants to be in charge. In this devotional, gain the strength needed to leave the idol you’ve set up in your heart and say ‘Yes’ to His will for your life.

Pride And Rebellion

This week let’s tackle the pure, child-like heart of HUMILITY as we spend time with our God.  We know that pride comes before the fall, so HUMILITY must come before we are lifted up.  Only the Holy Spirit can truly make us humble, so may that be our prayer this week. And please pray for the Hollywood entertainment industry, which we consider to be the world’s most influential mission field!

Humbling Yourself Before God

Have you ever noticed the difference between Michal and Bathsheba, David's two wives? Although they live next to the same king, their lives follow opposite paths. Michal clings to appearances, unable to open her heart to God, while, despite her failures, Bathsheba endured with dignity and depth. Their way of living their faith will lead them to opposite destinies: Michal disappears into oblivion, without a trace, while Bathsheba enters into the glory of the divine plan, becoming part of the Messiah's lineage.

Arid Hearts Lush Hearts

As Christians, is it possible to be ambitious in our work and still have our self-worth and identity firmly rooted in Jesus Christ? The world tells us that the point of work is to make a name for ourselves and accumulate fame and fortune. But as we'll see in this 3-day plan, the gospel replaces these improper ambitions with motivations to work to glorify God and serve others.
